Synopsis

The human head and hands are the most difficult elements in figure drawing, but world-class illustrator Andrew Loomis’s classic primer offers the solution. Revered among artists – including the great Norman Rockwell and comics superstar Alex Ross – for his mastery of figure drawing and clean, realist style, Loomis’s hugely influential art instruction books have never been bettered. Drawing the Head and Hands is the second in Titan’s programme of facsimile editions, returning these classic titles to print for the first time in decades.
